Celebrate National Kids to Parks Day at Twin Lakes. This year, Twin Lakes will is offering the following free programs, which meet at the Discovery Area, previously known as “The Spot” or the concession building:
10 a.m. – Lake Explorers
The edges of our lakes feature a tiny world teeming with life. In this program we’ll use dip nets to explore a lake ecosystem, and explain the importance of some of the wildlife we find.
1 p.m. – Track Detective
We’ll use our detective skills to investigate animal tracks, then make our own to take home.
3 p.m. – Meet and Greet with Ranger Myrtle the Turtle
Meet Ranger Myrtle, the park’s Red-eared Slider turtle. Those who stop by will learn how this native to the deep south ended up at Twin Lakes State Park, what she does with her eggs, and how to be a friend to Myrtle and all other turtles.
